WOC 2024 Preview

From 12-16 July, orienteering will take over Edinburgh as the city provides the perfect background for five days of racing.

Edinburgh is a city of great sporting traditions and has staged many world-class
sporting events in recent times, as well as hosting the world’s biggest arts festival
every year.


The city is renowned for its unique history, heritage and cultural vibrancy, and the Old
Town is one of two World Heritage Sites here. Its narrow lanes and cobbled streets
will provide a spectacular backdrop to the Championships and should afford those
coming to spectate some stunning vantage points.

Official Australian Team

MEN: Brodie Nankervis, Cooper Horley, Ewan Shingler, Henry McNulty
WOMEN: Caitlin Young, Erika Enderby, Mikayla Cooper, Milla Key, Nea Shingler
Team Officials: Aston Key, Mary Fleming, Natasha Key

Over the five days, we will see athletes compete in sprint qualifications, sprint finals, sprint relay, knockout sprint qualifications, and knockout sprint finals.

TV broadcast with English, French and German commentary is available on IOF TV.
